REVIEW (SPONSORED): PAC EYELINER LIQUID #PLASTIC PINK & #BABY BLUE



Hello my beauties!

" be thankful what you have in life :) even the littlest thing"

i dont know why but i need to say that. so be thankful :)

This is a sponsored product for me to review from PAC

and i got the brochure on their brand ambassador. Gorgeous woman isnt she? ;)
Inside the brochure, it has the steps to achieve Monday Michiru's look. 
So if you want to know how to get the look, just simply scroll down.






Alright so moving onto the eyeliner :) 
I believe that this is their new product and i am so honored to be able to try them out for you girls!
Here are the packaging snapshot.

Again, i think their packaging are informative so if you are looking for the information about the product, simply look at the packaging first before researching.





As for the product itself, i got them in 2 different colors and these two colors happened to be my favorite color! :D the product design is simple and professional with black and white.
Trust me, you can never go wrong with black and white #gdtips :P

One quick tip before using this product is to shake it so that everything is mixed.




When you open the liquid eyeliner, simply twist the plain black cap (thats the top) and pull :)
and you will see the products like this, with a pointy tip of applicator, and with this kind of tip, it will give you an ease in applying the eyeliner.

Well i prefer pointy and thin applicator like this compare to the "marker" top look alike.



The swatches:

As you can see and i bet the picture already saying it, the color pigmentation is vibrant for both colors. As for the blue one, i didnt shake it enough but i think this is showing the different between if you shake the eyeliner well and didnt. It dries quick, settled onto the space it is lining well and good coverage. You can blend it but to make sure you blend it when they are in a wet state.



What amaze me with this product, it is their long wearing ability.
It is like when you want to get rid of something but they just dont want to leave.
So i did a few test to see how strong this product is :) 
I tried to remove it with water, the blue one mostly gone but i think it is because i didnt shake it well hence the substance isnt mixed well * so remember to shake well before using*


Then i tried to remove them by rubbing my fingers on them and trust me, they dont come off !
I feel sore on my hand after :P As you can see from here, the blue color remains.


Lastly, i tried with the makeup remover,
Well makeup remover supposed to remove makeup, it removed the eyeliner but i had to put a lot of effort in it in order to removed it. 


and this is how it looks on my eyes, excuse my lame "artistic" line :P
You know what, these combination of colors reminds me of retro, the disco era haha





Conclusion:
- Love the long lasting ability
- love how waterproof they are
- love the color pigmentation
- love how it dries and settles into the skin quickly

ps: any questions, let me know on the comment box below :)
*related only*

REVIEW: BLESS ACNE LIQUID FOUNDATION (SPONSORED)


Hello!

This is sponsored from Bless Cosmetics

How many of you have heard about Bless ?
Well, let me tell you a history about me and Bless, Bless was found by Dr. Utama and i had been going to see him for consultation since i was like 5 years old, i kid you not!

The clinic still keep my old vintage * literally * patient card :P I remember i got my ear pierced there, odd right? well that, you can ask my mom! so i basically grew up with Bless skincare and i remember back then i did have acne :P but with the skincare, everything went away.

I am super glad that they came out with their decorative product! and i am super happy that they wanted to be the sponsored!

This particular product down here, i believed i use it before but the packaging is different.

The price:

you can do the shopping online ;) 

The packaging:
Well it is better than the previous one, i love the color combination of grey and white and purple :D the packaging is sturdy and strong and on it, it contains information such as ingredients, date of expiry and more.




To open the bottle, I do admit it is rather hard for me to twist but i manage to twist :P
and this is the cap of the bottle/packaging.
One good thing about this type of cap is it is hygienic because you dont have to dip your finger in it.


The picture below contains the function and how to wear.


The swatch:

Well, since this is a foundation specialized for acne, the texture is slightly different compare to other common foundation, this foundation here has a watery texture so make sure to shake it well before using it. It also has a powdery scent that is alright although me not a big fan of. :P



The coverage is low-medium because this is an acne foundation, with acne you cant get too thick otherwise it will stimulate them to show more or grow. The blending ability, i must say it is hard, it doesnt blend easily but with alot of patient, everything can be blend into the skin.


so this is my face without makeup :)


look at how watery the foundation is :D


first layer of the foundation
at this stage, it barely cover my acne on the chin


second layer, it covers slightly better but my acne is still visible


and lets see the staying power :D





conclusion:
- love the staying power :D who knew that with such a lightweight and watery texture holds a great and strong staying power and you all know how oily my skin is can get!
- since this is an acne foundation, if you have acne, consult a doctor first but if you think your skin will be alright wearing this foundation, go ahead because i personally used it before when i was younger, i love the lightweight feeling it gives due to the texture.
- as for the coverage it isnt that great but this is an acne foundation, it meant to prevent acne, heal the skin and to make the pores smaller. 
- i dont really like the scent actually :) and the blending ability is rather hard so you have to be very patient.

REVIEW: MAX FACTOR MIRACLE TOUCH CREAM BLUSH

wel.. i was thinking..
should i or should i not?
then i decided...
why not?!

well hello there my apple pies!
welcome to another review of MW :P

before i start, do read the picture below 


alright so once everything settled, i never considered of trying or looking that this particular product before because..... i dont know.. why did i even buy it? haha
so lets take a look together and analyze it *put my geeky glasses on*

here is the packaging.. i hate the packaging.
there is nothing.. interesting about it, plain i must say and looks.. cheap. :(
the price was around RP 78000


but i do love the size, so maybe that is why i bought this? the size haha it is small and handy so i always have this item in my makeup bag :)


they have four different colors, not many choices but thats okay because i tend to choose colors that are useful for day and night :P so i got this in.. pinky peachy color 



this is a cream blush and i dont usually like cream blush because i have a very oily skin and by applying anything creamy, it will make my face... look.. very oily. so maybe that is why i barely use this?
then one day.. i was rushing and forgot to put my makeup from home so i have to use my "stash" of makeup in my handbag and i had to use this cream blush...


welllll!!
it changed my view on this blush 180 degrees!
yes it is creamy but somehow when i apply it onto my face, it settles and doesnt give a shiny or glowy effects *well maybe it does but like 10%*


i must say the color pigmentation isnt great but, you can always layer it up and with this, it is easy to blend, not sticky *unlike my Bobbi Brown cream blush on a stick* and i must say it finished rather matte!


so will i repurchase?
- nope, not because of the quality , the quality is GOOD but i think for this small jar, the price was rather steep :( if they.. somehow! cut down the price to RP 50.000 *which i think still steep* i would buy another color :) 

this is the first cream blush i have ever love.

REVIEW: RIMMEL LIPSTICK #012, #202, #077


alright.. hellow my apple pies!

here is another lipstick that i owned.. from RIMMEL

i dont like the packaging.. if you touch it, you know it is light! like it is made from plastic.. i dont like the color of the packaging either .. 

the price.. i didnt buy it here but.. it was around IDR 90k ish..

so here is the snapshot..




the swatches:

The color pigmentation is alright, not high and not poor, you can always layer this up ;)
They are moisturizing and glides on easily.
The coverage is good :) and blend easily onto the lips.
I think these lipsticks has some shimmer/shine in it.


conclusion:
- packaging: dislike, it feels inexpensive
- color pigmentation: alright i can live with it
- semi moisturizing
- texture: soft and moisturizing so it glides on well 
- scent: it has this bubble-gum scent 

will i repurchase?
nope, i think it is because of of the packaging and the shimmer it has :(
